Talking First-Class Ban Camp



Guys if you’re going to get banned; why not make the best of your extra time. Getting Banned came at a convenient time this year … while July was experiencing Tornado's and High Winds to Extreme Heat and Extended Drought and records Rainfall throughout America; the Wife and I, and several friends took a couple weeks in Acapulco and a week in Miami and Lauderdale area. It was sure great to have consistent and comfortable weather for a change to recharge the batteries. I’m normally not a big fan of Mexico; but a good friend of mine has an enormous gated 7 bedroom villa (Casa Abuelo ), that overlooks Acapulco Bay at the highest point in Acapulco. It comes fully staffed, with transportation, driver and private security, so we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to take advantage of his hospitality during a time it was vacant.
CASA ABUELO LA CIMA ACAPULCO PRIVATE 7 BEDROOM LUXURY VILLA IDEAL FOR LARGE GROUPS AND ALL SORTS OF EVENTS FABULOSA VILLA DE LUJO PRIVADA DE 7 RECAMARAS IDEAL PARA GRUPOS GRANDES Y TODO TIPO DE EVENTOS

And if any of you Guys want to plan a trip to Acapulco with the Wife and get to play Golf, make sure you check out Tres Vidas; it has an excellent Spa for the Wife and the Golf Course will eat your Golf Balls for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But the food is great, the Cigars are burning smooth and the Sauna’s are to die for. TRES VIDAS ACAPULCO

And the good news is; I promoted the Vette Barn and helped pickup several new members. Three of the guys with me are long time Vette guys and they were just dying to see what all the fun was about. I just happen to have my trusty little iPad with me and I was more than happy to assist them in their new registration.

Are you saying that you have absolutely no idea of why you were banned in the first place?

If you don’t already have a date that would like to go somewhere with you, simply book your vacation, show up to the beach, and I’m sure you’ll draw something to your liking.

Good Luck … take pictures and bring plenty of Cash partner … you’ll need it.

Part of my strategy was recruitment.

This is a fun place for Vette Guys and there's plenty of Cool Pictures and technical tips ...

Especially the Car Detail section.
